Bloom, whose profile says he's a 25-year-old from Arizona, engaged in Twitter conversations of a sexual nature with an alleged 15-year-old. Screenshots of the conversations were posted Imgur but are too graphic to publish.

ESEA told Kotaku that Bloom's "these types of actions are not acceptable" and "any reports of similar actions are taken very seriously and will be fully investigated by our team."

Bloom apologized for his actions, though he remained somewhat combative, saying it was "incredibly stupid of me to do what I did. ... I am aware I'm hated by many for good reason. But please keep the hate on me, don't give a crap to any of my friends or orgs I've associated with."
